Answer:

Explanation:

There are different advantages to buy commercial software like:

- Is a system used for other companies, we will have good referents with the feedback of them.

- Support, we should have support twenty-four hours, if a system doesn't have good support, we must not buy the software.

- We can choose software with a lower initial cost, this depends on our needs.

Write a program that prompts the user to enter positive integers (as many as the user enters) from standard input and prints out
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Here is the JAVA program that prompts the user to enter positive integers from standard input and prints out the maximum and minimum values:

import java.util.*;

public class Ex0603 {

   public static void main(String[] args) { //start of main function

   Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); //creates Scanner class object to take input from user

   int minimum = 0; //stores the minimum of the integers

   int maximum = 0; //stores the minimum of the integers

   int num; //stores the positive integer values

   System.out.println("enter a positive integer: ");//prompts user to enter a positive integer

   num = in.nextInt();//scans and reads the input integer value from user

   minimum = num;  //assigns value of num to minimum

   while(true) {//while loop keeps prompting user to enter a positive integer

       System.out.println("enter a positive integer: ");//prompts user to enter a positive integer

       num = in.nextInt();//scans and reads the input integer value from user

       if(num <=0)//if the user inputs a negative integer or 0

           break; //breaks the loop

       if (num > maximum) {//if the value of positive integer is greater than the maximum of value

           maximum = num; } //assigns that maximum value of num to maximum variable

       if (num < minimum) {//if the value of positive integer is less than the minimum of value

           minimum = num; //assigns that minimum value of num to minimum       }    }            

   System.out.println("The maximum integer is : " + maximum); //displays the maximum of the positive integers

   System.out.println("The minimum integer is : " + minimum); }}   //displays the minimum of the positive integers

Explanation:

Here is the JAVA program that that prompts the user to enter an integer N, then reads N double values, and prints their mean (average value) and sample standard deviation:

import java.util.*;  

public class Ex0603 {  

public static void main(String[] args) { //start of main function

Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);  //creates Scanner class object to take input from user

double integer= 0;  //to store the number of input values

double sum = 0;  //to store the sum of input numbers

double mean = 0;  //to store the average of numbers

double sd = 0;  //to store the standard deviation result

double variance = 0;  //to store the variance result

double sumSquare = 0;  //to store the sum of (num-mean)^2

int n = 0;  //to store the sample size N

   System.out.println("Enter an integer: ");  //prompts user to enter an integer that is how many elements user wants to input

   integer = in.nextInt();  //reads the value of integer from user

   double size=integer; // declares a double type variable and assigns value of int type variable integer to this double type variable size

   int i=0;  //used to point each element of the num array

   double num[] = new double[(int)size];  //declares an array to hold the numbers input by user

   while(integer>0){  //loop executes until value of integer is greater than 0

   System.out.println("Enter a number: "); // prompts to enter a number

   num[i] = in.nextDouble(); //reads double values

   sum += num[i];  //adds the values stored in num array

   i++;  //increments i to point to the next element in num array

   n++;  //increments n to count the total number of elements

  integer--; //decrements integer value at each iteration

   mean = sum / n;    }  //compute the average of values

   i=0;  

    while(size>0){  //loop executes until value of size exceeds 0

       sumSquare += Math.pow(num[i]-mean,2); //takes the sum of square difference between each element of num array and value of mean

       i++; //increments i

      size--;   }  //decrements size

variance = sumSquare / (n-1);  //compute variance by dividing the result of sum of the squares of their differences from the mean by n-1

   sd = Math.sqrt(variance);  //computes standard deviation by using sqrt function which takes the sqrt of the result of variance computed above

System.out.println("Average value is: " + mean+ " and the standard deviation is " + String. format("%.2f", sd));   }} //displays the average of numbers stored in mean variable and value of standard deviation is displayed up to 2 decimal places

Screenshots of both programs and their outputs is attached.
